Brazil Court Seizes Musk Funds Amid X Ban
News summary

Elon Musk's social media platform, X, has circumvented a Brazilian Supreme Court ban by rerouting its traffic through Cloudflare's IP addresses, making it nearly impossible for ISPs to block the platform without affecting other critical services. This technical maneuver follows a judicial order from Justice Alexandre de Moraes, who had blocked X for not complying with content removal requests related to misinformation. De Moraes has also imposed fines on users accessing X via VPNs and seized over $3 million from X and Starlink bank accounts. The situation has sparked significant debate about state power versus free speech, with Musk criticizing the court's actions as overreach. Meanwhile, Brazil's telecommunications regulator is investigating the matter, and the Supreme Court's full bench has yet to rule on the broader implications of de Moraes' decision.
